pe·nis [pnəss]
(plural pe·nis·es or pe·nes [p neez]) 
n 
 male sex organ: the external male organ of copulation, used to transfer semen to the female. In most mammals, it is also used to expel urine from the body.

My heavens, man, you can say penis.  It's not one of the  seven forbidden words.  It's not even a cuss or a dirty word.  It's simply a normal male organ.  Penis Penis Penis, Plural is Penises or Penes. Seems like the Yahoo spell checker doesn't like the second spelling.
